Golson, Adams battling for school board runoff spot against Buck

Don’t write off incumbent school board president Hugh Golson in his re-election bid.

With more than 200 ballots still to be counted, Golson led challenger Floyd Adams by 76 votes Wednesday morning.

That means top vote getter Joe Buck isn’t assured of facing Adams in the Dec. 5 runoff as the Morning News reported in Wednesday’s edition. Adams would have to receive more than half the outstanding votes to earn a runoff spot.
